Founded in 1926 on the sandy shores of Narrow Neck Beach, the club began with a handful of keen sailors building their own boats and getting out on the water whenever they could. A century later, that small start has grown into a lively, multi‑class community. Our sailors span every level - from national champions to weekend warriors, first‑timers to long‑standing family crews - sailing everything from classic centreboard dinghies to modern foiling classes.

We welcome all ages and stages with accessible learn‑to‑sail pathways, and we support anyone wanting to build confidence, sharpen their skills, or simply enjoy time on the water. Whether you’re here to race hard or just catch the breeze, you’ll find your place at Wakatere.
